Grant County man mowing grass found dead in pond

A state diver has recovered the body of a man from a northeastern Indiana pond after he apparently fell in while mowing grass.

The Indiana Deparment of Natural Resources said Thursday that the diver recovered the body on Wednesday night. The victim's name was not released pending notification of relatives.

Conservation Officer Mark Baker said the man was mowing grass next to the pond and apparently got too close to the edge. When he didn't return to his house, family members began a search and then called police.
